In order to...maximize profit perhaps? What, you think corporations' sole purpose in life is to screw people over? Step away from the podium mr ventura
anyone having problems with wifi? It'll connect for like a second then switch to 3G, and for some reason it keeps trying to go to apple.com after it disconnects.
Here's something fun to do: Go watch the mars rover landing video and see what brand of laptop most of them are using if they're using one, or go to something like Google I/O and see what most of their engineers are using
herp derp, only morons buy apple and yet some of the most brilliant...
So basically, what you're saying is that you have none? What I have is logic. Moving a whole version number signifies a large jump, using the words "next-gen" in code signifies a larger jump than source to updated L4D source, the brand-new updated hammer icons points to a new engine.
What you...
Occam's Razor. It's Valve's next generation engine
Line 1387:
'''Return an str with the current engine version.
If key doesn't doesn't exist, assume 'Source', otherwise invalid -- assume next-gen 'Source 2'.'''
Then why can't you provide a source stating as such?
So basically, you've got no source and you're pulling shit out of your ass. I mean, you had to get this "information" from somewhere, so where is it? Don't worry, I'll wait.
You went from arguing that they were capitalizing on the opportunity (which they aren't), which was my original point, to arguing that BIS is in a different business when you lost the first argument. So what's YOUR point?
The bottom line is that people will remember Day-Z as the original...
Which is exactly why they'll get overtaken by this game or another one. Plain and simple. They can do whatever the hell they want, but when your game has (probably) sold more copies based on a mod than due to the actual game itself, maybe it's time to do a little more than "push out some...
yeah, and they've done jack shit except sit there with their thumbs up their ass. This mod probably caused more sales than all total previously combined, and they, as far as a know, haven't even acknowledged it, at least not in any meaningful way.
Want to generate excitement, hype, and...
If this delivers even half of what they promise, it will eclipse day-z in a matter of weeks. Day-z is too hard to get into, the interface is shit, it's buggy as all hell. Rocket missed his chance to capitalize on the success by announcing a stand alone, and then somebody else took the reins, and...
I've got all the settings up on max as far as I can tell. I mean, it reminds of when they used to use real photos or whatever for textures. Especially that very first part where you leave the cryochamber, the ground looks like it's a static photo. No depth and not even high res looking. Maybe I...
What the hell is it with some of the strategy games? AOE3 was only discounted to $10 (still bought it) and Anno was discounted to $30 and now going for $25 on the voting thing.
They knew what they were buying when they gave money. Don't expect that to change just because you're an entitled little brat. Don't like the specs, don't give them money. Otherwise, shut the fuck up.
Yeah, but that's what it's supposed to be. Don't try and make it something it's not. It's like those family sitcoms of the 90s that always had that "serious" episode that made you cringe because that's not what the show was, instead they shoehorned it in. Zombie and cartoony just don't go...
you can have both, BF3 says hi. Seems to me that epic just wanted to cheap out on the game, and this art style allows them to do so. I'm not saying it will be a bad game, but it would have been much better to go with a mature, horror theme that would make me crap my pants when the zombies try to...
should have made it realistic. they made a HUGE mistake going with this kiddy TF2 motif. It was cute and original 5 years ago when TF2 did it, now doing it just makes you look like an unoriginal hack
they should have made it realistic, not this cartoony TF2 shit. If DayZ has taught us anything, it's that people are very desperate for a realistic zombie survival game.
you do realize that that money is people paying for the product and not just free money, correct? They can't just add specs or they'll go bankrupt because the cost of the device will cost more than what they sold it for. I really, really hate people that talk out of their ass.
That wasn't from technet, it was from some sort of MSDN program for startups. It didn't cost anything and was extremely easy to get accounts. So basically someone could get hundreds of legit keys for free.
So you trust google, whose business relies extremely heavily on advertising, over MS, a company that probably gets less than 1% of revenue from advertising. Sound logic. Who has more incentive to use your information in less than ethical ways?
Ok, that doesn't make glass any more impressive. They seemed to focus on something entirely different from the actual product in order to put on a show. I don't need any fancy skydiving bullshit, just show me the HUD from a first person perspective and show something like facial recognition with...
If that was the point of the demo, I might be a little more impressed, but it was far from it. They showed was is essentially a head mounted camera streaming via 3g/4g. How is that impressive?
color me unimpressed. I could probably hack together something similar in my spare time. Show off something actually impressive like AR, etc. like was shown in the promo video. Otherwise, keep it hidden until it's ready.
